head bashing. This is what I ultimately had to do:
I put the blacklist entries in the user_prefs file in the /home/<user>/.spamassassin folder.
Then, I had to modify my .procmailrc file to read this:
# This specifically tells spamassassin to use the user_prefs file :0fw: spamassassin.lock | /usr/bin/spamassassin -p /home/<user>/.spamassassin/user_prefs
# This tells spamassassin that if the spam score is 25 or higher, # Then delete it completely. Of course you can have it do something # else like send it to a spam folder. # See http://engr.oregonstate.edu/computing/email/90 for more information :0: * ^X-Spam-Level:.\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\* /dev/null
Then, as the user that needs filtering I ran spamassassin -D --lint and looked for any errors. If I didn't find any, then it was good to go. For debugging this, you might have the spam that it catches moved to a different folder to see if it is even testing for the USERS_IN_BLACKLIST.
Hope this helps.
Thanks,
Antonio DeLaCruz

Well that looks fine to me. Would it be possible for you to post the headers from a message that fails to trigger against the blacklist, and the real line from local.cf that you expect it to hit? Also how is SA being called (i.e. spamd, milter, procmail..)?
Cheers, Craig.
